Just spreading the news! 1 Corinthians 3:6

Good morning everyone. God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

Let's start today with a quote: "Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant."
Robert Louis Stevenson

1 Corinthians 3:6 "I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow."

Paul planted the seed of the Good News message in people's hearts. He was a missionary pioneer; he brought the message of salvation. Apollos watered the seed. He helped the believers grow stronger in the faith.

Paul founded the church in Corinth, and Apollos built on that foundation. Unfortunately, the believers in Corinth had split into factions, pledging loyalty to different teachers.

After the preachers' work is completed, God is the one who makes Christians grow. If you attend a traditional church your leaders should be respected, but we should never place them on pedestals that create barriers between people or set them up as a substitute for Christ.

If you attend in a non-traditional setting, no one person is higher than another, all are there to plant seeds, God will take care of the rest. Don't worry about the harvest - God will do that. We just need to keep spreading the seeds. Let your butterfly wings develop and go forth. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
